Both Ceylon and DCC's meals look good.

Last night at our place was crab cakes and pesto pasta salad and tonight is grilled burgers with corn on the cob.

Last night was a bit of a surprise as I got home from the gym and Mrs. Stan was straightening up the house. Turned out my daughter and her family were coming over for dinner. Good thing I get 5 crab cakes from a pound of crab. So dessert was getting to play with my granddaughter.

ceylon i just farted with joy seeing your dinner!!

Simplicity is good sometimes. This is all about the dipping sauce:

Kikilamour · Post by **Kikilamour** » Thu Sep 13, 2018 1:07 pm

noodles, raw okra and what's that? pickle?
what's in the sauce?

jessica_fletcher · Post by **jessica_fletcher** » Thu Sep 13, 2018 2:46 pm

That's looks awful.

Stan In Maryland · Post by **Stan In Maryland** » Thu Sep 13, 2018 2:55 pm

CT, where is the rice for the gumbo?

EMG, it's time for you to get back to your Texas roots and dazzle us with some of that great cooking we know you can do.

EMG · Post by **EMG** » Thu Sep 13, 2018 4:26 pm

I cannot help your childlike palates appreciate the finer things in life. If a Japanese cook made that dish the critics would gush over their respect of the ingredients, simplicity, naturalness, etc.

But when I do it you mongs are like "I WANT MEAT WITH BBQ SAUCE DURRRRRR"

Anyway, it's eggplant and okra blanched in saltwater. Vegetable noodles served cold with olive oil. Dipping sauce is cane vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, onion, cracked black pepper, bird's eye chili.

If you like the taste of vegetables, it's a great dish. Also if you like things like cold soba the Japanese serve, it's a great dish. If you like the taste of microwave salisbury steaks, it's not for you.

EMG · Post by **EMG** » Thu Sep 13, 2018 4:29 pm

Oh and this morning I had grilled chicken sandwiches with cheese and jalapeno. Didn't take a picture though.

Homerj · Post by **Homerj** » Thu Sep 13, 2018 4:31 pm

Beer can chicken, grilled veg and potatoes, homemade coleslaw.

i would so eat that! Yay! I'm not a child palater.
in fact , i bought soba noodles last week, bonito flakes, wakame, lotus root and bamboo shoot tips. YUM. i'm going to make a nice cold lotus root salad with birds eye chilis , green onions, rice vinegar and something else i have to look up.

emg, could you substitute the cane vinegar with rice vinegar? what's its flavour profile.

EMG · Post by **EMG** » Thu Sep 13, 2018 5:50 pm

Cane vinegar is sweeter than rice vinegar. You could swap them but it wouldn't be exactly the same. I think if I were forced to swap the two, I'd add a teaspoon of white sugar.

That's a Filipino dipping sauce, that's also used as a meat marinade frequently, and is one of my favorite things. It's really, really good.

gnd · Post by **gnd** » Thu Sep 13, 2018 5:54 pm

yes, wondered where the rice (or pasta I suppose now??) was for the gumbo too.

Thnk you for explaining EMG

hmmm Beer Can chicken?

gnd · Post by **gnd** » Thu Sep 13, 2018 5:55 pm

oh yeah. Different pizzas tonight. Got fed all meals today because different seminars all day. V nice.

Gumbo has rice in it? I have no idea about creole/Cajun food. That one definitely said gumbo in the menu. It tasted nice but I wouldn’t go out of my way to eat it again. Generally speaking I found creole/Cajun food to be good but don’t think it’s something I’ll go for if there are other options. I’m also not a big fan of grits. I did like this dish. Crawfish with creamy grits. Cream makes everything better

Stan In Maryland · Post by **Stan In Maryland** » Thu Sep 13, 2018 8:05 pm

Well, I might not be an expert but I lives 50 miles southwest of NO for 5 years and gumbo was always served with rice (not with rice cooked in the gumbo). Of course NO food and true Cajun food is not exactly the same. Where I lived grits was a northern thing. Cajun food is very rice centered.

Most of that crawfish with creamy grits looks like shrimp. I see a couple of crawfish but at least an many shrimp.

ceylon_tea · Post by **ceylon_tea** » Thu Sep 13, 2018 8:15 pm

Menu said it's crawfish. Fuckers may have added shrimps in there. I can't tell the difference especially after few drinks.

ceylon_tea · Post by **ceylon_tea** » Thu Sep 13, 2018 8:16 pm

I just googled gumbo. Most of them have rice in it but I saw a few without rice as well.

EMG · Post by **EMG** » Thu Sep 13, 2018 9:28 pm

Crawfish is the little fuckers with claws.

Couldn't agree more. A Texan making girlie food with Hello Kitty pasta = SAD. I'm into a routine of making rice and a protein at 430AM every morning, and then sending off my friend with his lunch for work. I do manly stuff like laundry and watch soap operas after he leaves.
I have a few workers coming by early tomorrow to trim hedges, so making a hearty beef stew in a slow cooker later tonight. MAN food. It doesn't matter if the stew already has spuds in it, I'll get odd looks if I don't serve it with rice.

Everything except that first think looks good. Is that french fries and rice??

EMG · Post by **EMG** » Fri Sep 14, 2018 1:50 pm

There's no rice! French fries, cheese, smoked bratwurst, 2 kinds of mustard, hot sauce, salt and pepper.

It's my lazy snack.

Stan In Maryland · Post by **Stan In Maryland** » Fri Sep 14, 2018 2:34 pm

Hmmm...onions? either that or those are some maggots on the side of the plate.

What you describe actually sounds pretty tasty.

EMG · Post by **EMG** » Fri Sep 14, 2018 3:18 pm

Colby jack cheese

It was very tasty

nope, there are some little things that look like grains of rice. Could be minced onion, could be maggots.

I just decided tonight will be paella. It is a dreary kind of day and that seems appropriate. Have to stop on the way home for seafood.

Run some colby jack cheese through a grater and you'll know.

Or maybe google "grated colby jack". Either way. It is cheese.
